Summary
| Description |
Phacops rana (Green, 1832) fossil trilobite from the Devonian of Ohio, USA (public display, CMNH 4570, Cleveland Museum of Natural History, Cleveland, Ohio, USA). Here's a famous trilobite species whose remains are relatively common in the Middle Devonian-aged Silica Formation of northeastern Ohio. This is Phacops rana (Green, 1832) (some place the species in "Eldredgeops", an unnecessary name based on insufficiently justified genus-level taxonomic splitting). Phacops trilobite fossils occur with other typical Middle Paleozoic shallow marine invertebrates: brachiopods, bryozoans, crinoids, and corals. Classification: Animalia, Arthropoda, Trilobita, Polymerida, Phacopidae Stratigraphy: Silica Formation (Silica Shale), Middle Devonian Locality: quarry in Sylvania, northeastern Ohio, USA |
